Sean Stoker

I’m a young professional with a hunger for both the written word and film editing.

A Bachelor’s Degree in communication and diverse industry experience in digital media have sculpted me into a curious writer and editor who is constantly on the lookout for new ideas and techniques, keeping topics of interest and their best possible medium of expression at top of mind.

I’m a major proponent of both formal and informal education, having worked as a tutor and teacher, as well as an eLearning and computer-based training professional. Following both the principles of good instruction and engaging written and visual content.

I am currently open to freelance writing and video projects. Drop me a line in the form below for any inquiries.
